flibco.com & Bohr take over the line from Cologne and Düsseldorf to the
airport of Weeze
From October 30, 2016, the companies FlibTravel International S.A. and Bohr Omnibus GmbH will
operate on the bus line from Cologne, via Düsseldorf to the airport of Weeze under the brand
flibco.com.
This line, operated by Schilling Omnibus GmbH for thirteen years, will be served up to 5 times a day
with modern, comfortable busses in the green and white flibco.com design. The airport of Weeze can
still be reached by the same bus stops in Cologne and Düsseldorf.
For many years, the companies Bohr Omnibus GmbH and Schilling Omnibus GmbH cooperated in many
areas. Therefore, it was obvious that the company Schilling have handed over this line to the company
Bohr situated in Hunsrück. Actually, Shilling withdraws itself from the intercity business due to
restructuring reasons. In the near future, a connection to further stops is planned.
Company owner Timo Bohr says: "Our goal is to connect more and more people from the catchment
area of Weeze Airport to our bus line in order to offer them a cost-effective and comfortable way to
reach their departing hall."
As a 100% Luxembourgish company, specialized in transportation to the airports of Europe, flibco.com
is always aiming to improve and expand its network. This new line to the airport of Weeze corresponds
to its philosophy, namely to strive for continuous development. This is also reflected in the already
existing lines to the airports of Charleroi, Frankfurt am Main, Frankfurt-Hahn, Baden-Airpark,
Luxembourg, Larnaca and Paphos.
Since January 2016, the companies flibco.com and Bohr operate the line from Luxembourg via Trier to
the airport of Frankfurt-Hahn and to the city of Frankfurt am Main. The two companies want to expand
this successful cooperation further through the connection to the airport of Weeze. Paul De Muynck,
CEO of flibco.com about this new line: "flibco.com has been cooperating with Bohr for several years.
Through this further line, we multiply the advantages of both companies. Actually, flibco.com and the
German transport company Bohr can gain profit, characterized by increasing their catchment area. The
passengers of Weeze Airport can begin their journey in the greatest comfort of our shuttles and avoid
the unnecessary stress on the roads!"
